Here's what I pulled out of my bag this morning ... I'm a scattered reader - but I like it like that. If you're anything like me .... I'll get bored of certain books quickly - even if i truly enjoy them. It's just the ADD child in me.... As a result, I'll read random chapters at random times... but I get em done. I actually enjoy soaking it all up... as I grow older - I find myself reading more and watching less TV ... its a sign of aging I guess... that and my deep admiration for Celine Dion ;)Current state of the bag ...
1. His Needs, Her Needs - Been reading this one with Marcy either on the way to work in the mornings or at night before bed. Some good friends of ours gave it to us a while back and we just now got to it. Great book on understanding each other ... pretty hot I may say. It has been very helpful in our communication as a couple.
2. Be Our Guest - Phenomenal book from the Disney Institute on the secret to their "magic". It's a must for leaders looking to kick it up a "magical" notch.
3. Entertainment Weekly - I skip straight to the billboard charts and reviews in the back looking for new music, movies or books. Then I'll skim through it and catch up on whats cooking around Hollywood.
4. Wired - I Love the "futurist" articles, tech trends, gear review , and all the Web 2.0 craze .... greatly designed too.
5. The Word - Obviously the only consistent book on my rotation - the Bible. I'm in the middle of 2 Timothy right now ... and have been learning tons from Paul's letters to Timothy ... great word from God on the bride, leadership, quarrels and more .
I also just finished : "Inside Steve's Mind", "All Marketers are Liars", and "Visioneering" ... I'll have a full review from my notes soon ... great books worth reading and reviewing! Looking forward to reading "It's Our Ship", "Maverick's at Work" and "Imagineering" - any suggestions from your bag ?

I just noticed that book [his needs, her needs] on my parents' bookshelf. Perhaps I'll take a gander at it.
Right now I'm reading "Love in the Time of Cholera" with Anne Marie and Merari. I'm a HUGE Gabriel Garcia Marquez fan....I'm not sure you're into all that "magical realism" stuff though...I never see you reading any fiction books. But anyway, he's a great writer.
I can only read one book at a time...so that's it from me, lol.
